1 large eggplant

3 baking potatos (baked)

1 cup tomato sauce

1/2 cup flour (use whole wheat)

1-2 tablespoon lite soysauce

2-3 teaspoon nutmeg (grated or ground)

1 liter (1 container) lite soymilk (vanilla flavoured is best)

1 pouch tofu mixed with 1 box tofu burger mix (use lowfat tofu)

 

Cut the eggplant into 1/4 " disks and lay the disks on an absorbent cloth

or paper towel. Sprinkle with salt and allow the eggplant to " perspire "

for 10 minutes, then turn the disk over and repeat. Rinse eggplant

lightly

in cold water using a colander.

 

Prepare the casserole by covering the bottom with just 3 - 4 tablespoons

of tomato sauce. Put the soysauce in a cup and brush each disk (both

sides) with soysuace and place in a preheated, non-stick fry pan. Fry

until the eggplant turns transparent and begins browning. As each disk

is done, place it on the bottom of the lasagna dish until the whole bottom

is covered.

 

Now, add another 3 to 4 tablespoons of tomato sauce to cover the eggplant

and spoon the tofu burger mixture on top of the eggplant adding the

remainder

of the tomato sauce on top. Slice the potatoes lengthwise (1/4 inch

slices)

 

and arrange them in a layer on top.

 

Pour 1 container of vanilla flavoured soymilk into a large sauce pan and

heat (almost to boiling). Make a paste with some of the soymilk and

flour and mix the paste with the rest of the soymilk.

 

Add the nutmeg and paste to the soymilk and begin stirring. Eventually,

the soymilk will thicken. Pour this onto the casserole and

bake at 300F for 30 minutes or until the top casserole is browned.

Association.

Makes: 6 to 8 servings

 

Notes:

Moussaka is a casserole made from eggplant, potato, tofu burger, tomato

sauce and soymilk. The distinctive flavour of this casserole lies in the

nutmeg used to make the soy-based bechamel sauce which goes on the top of

the casserole. This is a hearty dish which freezes well. A transparent

lasanga dish is preferable but any casserole dish can be used.

Since when is skepticism un-American?

Dissent's not treason but they talk like it's the same

Those who disagree are afraid to show their face " --Sleater-Kinney

Vegetarian Times has a nice looking gluten free vegan recipe this week.

Although it is billed as low fat, I would still cut down the oil, if using

any.
